BELLEVUE, Wash., Dec. 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- A new holiday shopping survey, released today by Coinstar, found that 62 percent of Americans who set a holiday budget go over their limit by an average of $140. This marks a 20 percent increase from what people estimated they would overspend last year.
In order to buy gifts for everyone on their list, 66 percent of shoppers find they need to cut back on things they enjoy like dining out (43 percent) and entertainment (42 percent), or even take on credit card debt (27 percent) or purchase an item on layaway (22 percent). Not only do people have to sacrifice before the holidays, but this overspending leads to post-holiday money issues, too. Americans reported they find themselves saving less money (20 percent), having to set a budget (19 percent) or dealing with debt (18 percent) in the first few weeks after the holidays.
"The holidays can be a stressful time of the year, particularly when it comes to money," said Andrea Woroch, a nationally recognized consumer and money saving expert. "Fortunately, there is hidden money throughout most homes in the form of coins and gift cards that can help people avoid taking on debt because of their over-spending."
Coinstar offers two options to help people instantly turn the coins and gift cards they have around the house into cash so they can keep their finances on track and enjoy themselves before, during and after the holidays.
